Holistic Cervical Cancer Treatments

• 1). Follow a strict anti-cancer diet to increase your odds of defeating cervical cancer. According to information from the Cancer Treatment Centers of America and the American Cancer Society, diet is one key to successfully beating cancer. This means consuming a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables and whole grains while avoiding trans and saturated fats, sugars, alcohol, fried foods and other "junk" calories. Although it can be difficult to reprogram yourself to eat a healthy diet if you are not already in the habit, remember that you are in a fight for your life, so make the necessary adjustments as quickly as possible.
  
  
• 2). Consider alternative holistic practices like acupuncture and acupressure. According to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America, acupuncture can stimulate the body's immune system, helping to engage your natural defenses in your struggle against cervical cancer. Even if you do not now believe in the efficacy of these treatments, give them a fair try before concluding that they can do no good for your particular case.
  
  
• 3). Engage in stress management activities such as group therapy, meditation and biofeedback to help manage your mood. The Cancer Treatment Centers of America says mood can have a direct impact on your physical health--and thereby have a direct impact on your struggle against cervical cancer--so consider enrolling in one or more of these disciplines to help defeat cancer holistically.
